Getting the most out of talks and workshops

In this clip from a longer video, Alistair Cockburn (Agile Manifesto co-author and creator of the Heart of Agile approach, talks about how you can gain learning from any session you attend, even though you may think you know the topic.

"It's remarkable that people will say that all they learned in a session is that 'pretty much I was right all along'. Which means they didn't learn anything…Hunt for something to pull into you."

 
Scott Ford.

Software Remodelling: Resisting the Rewrite Temptation

In this talk, M. Scott Ford, Co-Founder and Chief Code Whisperer at Corgibytes, a firm dedicated to modernizing existing codebases, shares ways that developers can learn to appreciate modifying a codebase they didn’t write. He talks about the Maker/Mender divide, discusses differences between new construction and software remodeling, provides insights into tool, language, and process choices, and more.

 

Therese Neate

Managers, Leaders and Agile Coaches: You don’t need more testers to improve software quality.

How often have you heard: "Our quality is poor, we need more testing (or testers)." When you hear this, know that this indicates not only a spurious correlation but also a fundamental misunderstanding of what testing is or does. Come on this journey with me where I explore the above claim, walking you through 1. Testing 2. Quality 3. Building in Quality.

 
Norman Bodek, Ahmed Avais, Christophe Makni.
 
Leadership Social Responsibility – Creating a new and powerful organization

In this talk, Norman, Ahmed and Christophe helps you to learn how to help your organization make this very important shift and to find great new opportunities.

 
Kazuyoshi Hisano. 

A new way to be successful in this difficult and uncertain world
